Prevention of hypothermia in the newborn
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Body temperature control is essential to the baby's survival, especially premature babies, sick newborns, or normal newborns. On the other hand, hypothermia conditions are associated with infant mortality and morbidity rates. Also, it causes an increased mortality rate to 28 percent. This article presents the concept of neonatal hypothermia, signs and symptoms, preventative measures and caring for newborns with hypothermia. This will lead to the effective neonatal care in the health service system according to the policy of Ministry of Public Health.
